Grade Abearish AI signal$XAU$SPX$BTC
Gold has failed to attract safe-haven demand during recent market turbulence, falling below $4,000 an ounce to its lowest level in a year.
The metal is down 9% year to date and has lost around a quarter of its value since the U.S. and Israel first attacked Iran on February 28, even as central-bank purchases rose 42% in the third quarter to 321 metric tons.
Gold's deeply oversold position could support a rebound, but continued market stress may trigger further selling if investors need liquidity.
